| About WATERPLANET |
WATERPLANET is psychedelic pop made in the post-punk afterglow. From the beginning WATERPLANET music has defied classification, tinged with imagination, anguish, and play.*
Two people, acoustic guitars, pedals, percussion, an antique snare. Vocal harmonies and instruments set off sympathetic sounds in the room as WATERPLANET members Jim and Millie exchange instruments and play. Both are imagistic songwriters of unusual songs.*
Shelly Yakus, engineer to John Lennon, U2, etc., declared WATERPLANET ahead of their time, saying their songs conjured animated movies in his mind.**********
